 For the Silver Spring contra, the things Will has been doing are:
   - Before the event, make sure the iPads and their paired Square credit card readers are charged up, and that the iPad apps are up to date, using the App store. Also install any iPadOS updates, using Settings -> General -> Software Update. Note that iPadOS updates are infrequent.
-  - If you will be using any Android tablets: Before the event, make sure any Android tablets to be used and their paired Square credit card readers are charged up, and that the apps are up to date, using "Manage apps & device" in the Play Store app. See caution at the bottom about installing Play Store updates. Also install any Android system updates, using Settings -> System -> System updates. Note that Android system updates are very infrequent.

   - Once back home, restore the cash kitty to its normal starting contents. I suggest $80 in $5 bills and $20 in $1 bills.
   - Make sure the income and donation cash (and checks if any) get deposited within a few days, a week at the very most.
-====Caution about getting Android Play Store updates to install====
-Google's Android Play Store app has acquired a very strange behavior about finding updates to install, where it will not always find some of the latest updates unless you force an additional search. Here is how that works.
-  -Run the Play Store app (a multicolored triangle pointed to the right). Start the update install process:
-  -If it displays
-  -Tap the round icon in the upper right, normally a lower case "a" for FSGW check-in tablets. That comes from the first letter of the current account, which is "android#@fsgw.org".
-  -Tap "Manage apps & device", which display a "Manage apps & device" page.
-  -If the page says "All apps are up to date", do not believe it. Instead, tap "See recent updates" just below that.
-  -Tap the "Updates available" button in the row of buttons below the "Manage" tab.
-  -A "You're all set" icon and text will probably get displayed. Tap the "Check for updates" button below that.
-  -If it re-displays the same icon, text and button, now you can believe it, all available updates are installed.
-  -If it displays a list of apps with updates available
